Nickel plating on the oval blade provides a classic flash, identifying this 2/5 oz (12 g) Walleye Killer from Erie Dearie as a staple for drift-and-drag fishing. Listed under product code 1956, this specimen features the iconic weight-forward lead head in a vibrant green finish, accented by a single red dot for visual contrast. The hardware includes a wire frame with two translucent orange beads positioned ahead of a sturdy, single bait-holder hook. Manufactured in the USA, the design reflects the functional heritage of Captain Dan Galbincea’s original lures intended for Great Lakes angling. The blade is clearly stamped with the manufacturer's name, maintaining its bright reflective surface. Every component, from the paint on the weighted head to the integrity of the wire harness, appears exceptionally well-kept, reflecting a condition rating of 5/5.
